Throttle Servo : I wanted a nice direct throttle
linkage and the plywood former lent itself perfectly to a throttle servo mount.
I was a little concerned about the vibration levels here so I mounted the servo
on a ply plate and screwed this ply plate on the the former with some heavy duty
foam in between to absorb a lot of the vibration.

Ignition System : A 2100mAh ThunderPower Lipo battery
and a PowerBox Systems voltage regulator was secured to the front of the
fuselage and wired into an ElectroDynamics FiberOptic Ignition Kill Switch
(secured to fuselage side by canopy) using a Heavy Duty JR on/off switch for the
system. All leads are carefully secured away from the cannister exhaust.

Choke Setup : Rather than install another servo for
the choke I made up a short pushrod that can be used to actuate the choke. It
finished just level with the front of the cowl opening when choked and sits
neatly inside the cowl when set for normal running. A tie wrap stops it flapping
about. Works perfectly and weighs a few grams!

Header / Pipe Setup : Although a tight squeeze, the
header and pipe will fit. It does require a fairly forced bend in the teflon
connector but is achievable. If you really want to, you could heat the joint in
the header pipe and rotate the final section of the header to a more suitable
angle. Be careful not to overheat this joint though otherwise you may
create small gaps that will leak. I always do away with the 'spring clamps'
supplied as they do not have the force required to securely hold the coupler in
place. Replacing them with jubilee clips is worthwhile in my opinion.

Receiver Batteries : I used two ThunderPower 2100mAh
lipos running through a PowerBox-Systems Sensor Switch. To balance the model at
the rear of the recommended CofG range I mounted them behind the rudder servo
tray. This did, however, involve the hassle of having to lengthen the battery
leads. The batteries were held in place on the 'battery tray' using velcro. This
stopped any fore/aft movement but to be safe they were tiewrapped down to stop
any up/down movement! The velcro was UHU'd onto the lipo back and cyanoed to the
balsa tray.

Receiver Mounting : The synthesised receiver was
mounted to the vertical plate as per the instructions. The cables have been
tidied since this shot! The receiver aerial was guided along the canopy edge and
up out of the fuselage behind the top of the canopy opening.

All Up Weight: The AUW of my 2x2m was 14lb 11oz
